Make twice the impact this Best Friends Day

We’re celebrating Best Friends Day, and that means every gift is matched through June 8.

Your kindness today will help twice as many homeless pets find a best friend of their very own. As you might imagine, Best Friends Day is celebrated with extra enthusiasm here at Best Friends. It’s a day devoted to showing pets in every community in the country that they deserve a loving home, care and companionship, and a very best friend. Whether you create a fundraiser or make a donation, your gift today can be both a meaningful way to honor your own pets and a significant step toward bringing the country to no-kill in 2025 and beyond.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Today, roughly 2,500 shelters are no-kill throughout the U.S. — and 700 more are just 100 pets or fewer away from reaching that milestone.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
